What comes to mind when you hear the words “healthy muffins?” Do you think of eating freshly baked healthy blueberry muffins with your favorite relative (we all have one)? Or perhaps baking healthy pumpkin muffins on a crisp autumn morning?

Or, are you like Erik and me, and the mere thought of a healthy muffin recipe immediately makes your mouth water and your stomach rumble? (Who cares about an awesome relative or fall morning?) 😉

­­­Easy Healthy Muffin Recipes (Vegan, Gluten Free)

In case you couldn’t tell, today is all about the best healthy muffin recipes. You see, I am a huge fan of muffins, particularly easy healthy muffins. There’s just something special about homemade healthy muffins that makes them stand out from any other baked good, ya know?

Maybe it’s the feeling of joy when you pull that tray of perfectly dome-topped healthy muffins out of the oven, or maybe all the possible flavor variations (I see you healthy banana muffins). Or maybe it’s the fact that they’re perfect for sharing with someone you love. 😊

Whatever the reason, I think we can all agree that we’re hankering for some fresh-baked, easy heathy muffins right about now. So, would you join me in this celebration of all things healthy muffin? Let’s do this!

Healthy Banana Muffins

If you were to ask me what I love most about healthy banana muffins, it would be their versatility. There’s just so many wonderful ways to make healthy banana muffins: chocolate chip, oatmeal, double chocolate, walnut—the list goes on! So here are a few of my favorite easy healthy banana muffins recipes.

Recommended Tools for the Best Healthy Muffin Recipe

  • Muffin batter scoop – 1 of my top baking tools. I highly recommend using this muffin batter scoop (shhh… it’s secretly an ice cream scoop!) to scoop muffin batter for easier & more even batter distribution.
  • Non-stick Parchment Muffin Liners – half the time, I use these nonstick parchment muffin liners. These babies are the gold standard in muffin liners. They are so nonstick that they naturally peel off on their own while your muffins are cooling! Perfect for folks who hate any kind of liners sticking to their muffins!
  • Unbleached Muffin Liners – the other half of the time, I love using these unbleached muffin liners! They’re compostable, stick *just the right amount* to your muffins (so the liners don’t fall off mid-cooling) and are so easy to use. Bonus: you get to feel good about them not being bleached!
  • Silicone Muffin Pan – sometimes, I just want to skip the muffins liners and usual muffin pans. This is when I take out either the regular 12-muffin pan or the super cute 24-mini-muffin pan in this affordable 2-pack. Muffins won’t stick to this pan & they’re super, super easy to pop out!
  • Almond Flour & Almond Meal – I have a true soft spot for almond flour and almond meal in my healthy muffins recipes. Almond flour adds a light fluffiness, healthy fat and longer satiety in these healthy muffins recipes. Almond meal adds a delicious, satisfying texture in the best healthy muffins recipes! 

 

Healthy Blueberry Muffins

I think we can all agree that healthy blueberry muffins are, without question, the best. You just can’t beat the feeling of biting into a freshly-baked healthy blueberry muffin and basking in that fresh blueberry goodness. Now, if anyone ever asks you if blueberry muffins are healthy, you can simply point them towards one of these babies. 😉

Healthy Chocolate Muffins

One of my favorite healthy muffins of all time are healthy chocolate muffins! Need I even explain? 😉 If you’re a chocolate lover like me, you know when you just NEED a fix—and what better, guilt-free way than to indulge & truly enjoy a healthy chocolate muffin? Or two! 😉 I hope you love these healthy chocolate muffins recipes as much as I do!

    Hi, Demeter. Is there any substitute for coconut sugar in the muffin recipe. If add more liquid sweetener or remove the coconut sugar from the recipe will it affect anything?

    Reply
    • Demeter | Beaming Baker says

      September 3, 2020

      Hi Cheah, generally adding more liquid sweetener means that the recipe/muffins will become more moist, and in some cases, too moist or appear underbaked. I recommend sticking to the recipe as is when you can. 😉 If you absolutely need to use liquid sweetener, try reducing the amount that you sub to balance the recipe out–and be prepared for experimentation. Hope this helps!

    OMG. ALL OF THESE muffins just look so inviting and delicious. Honestly have no idea where to start haha. But with the fall coming up, I might have to go with one of the pumpkin ones, ya know, to be basic LOL. All the photos look great, and very easy to follow. I’ve already saved a few of them.

      There’s nothing basic about pumpkin and fall fun! It’s pretty much the perfect way to say goodbye to summer and hello to all the best seasonal flavors. 😋 Happy baking Peter!
